Cabins were cold and musty. I couldn't sleep. Deposit supposedly return every Tuesday is held although there is front desk staff . Cabins r sheetless and empty. So bring ur own linens or sleep ing bag.

This is an amazing park with many trails to explore! The creek goes on a really long way, eventually leading to the Duwamish River & Puget Sound. It’s a great place for dogs (please keep them on a leash & pick up after them!). The people really take care of the land, keeping it clean & free of sketchy people. You’re not going to find tents or needles or anything like that here (I’m not saying people in tents are bad or that everyone in tents use needles- not AT ALL). There is a course through the entire camp for the highly-skilled athletes. I think you have to belong to the club to use the courses, so don’t just go doing acrobats without asking first. There are garbage cans & bathrooms throughout, so no need to toss anything on the ground or pop a squat! They’ve got you covered. There’s even a pay phone in front!! While it’s nice having a place that’s pretty isolated, it seems a shame to not share the magic of Camp Long. Check out the visitor’s center, because I believe they’re open again. Parking is free, though limited. Have a great time & be respectful of nature & the Indigenous people who this land rightfully belongs to!

I have not stayed overnight here, but you can walk in it (including with leashed dogs) during the day. It is so beautiful that I walk from near the stadium to the Delridge library through it, instead of taking 35th or Delridge most of the way. (Stay out of the golf course if you do this; the path starts/ends south of their parking lot.) The paved and dirt paths can be followed using Google Maps, and presumably other apps with good location/GPS. Camp Long is home to Seattle's first designated climbing rock, which makes a nifty monolith.

It's free but best to look at tours and possibly book a cabin https://www.seattle.gov/parks/find/centers/camp-long

No. The park is landlocked, and the pond is interesting but stagnant and shallow.
